Il Merriam Webster dà per subtle queste definizioni:
Explanation:
1 a : DELICATE, ELUSIVE <a subtle fragrance> b : difficult to understand or perceive : OBSCURE <subtle differences in sound>


quindi nel tuo contesto penso che si possa parlare dei "campi più elusivi" o, più liberamente, dei "campi più astratti"
